I get the point Jerry Hinnen is making here, but honestly, after what Vol fans have been put through over the last couple of seasons (Battered Vol Syndrome?), I kind of find that level of support admirable.

Put it this way: Georgia Tech would kill for that kind of season ticket renewal number.

Sunday night ESPNU replayed Tennessee vs North Carolina in last year’s Music City bowl. I remembered watching the game last year and that it had a crazy finish but I couldn’t remember who won. Last year I was vaguely pulling for Tennessee because of the SEC connection.

Seven months later, my daughter has enrolled at North Carolina for fall classes and I’ve bought tickets for UNC vs Miami in Chapel Hill for parent’s weekend. So I was interested in watching the game for a new reason. Who is this UNC team?

It was a lot of fun watching DaRick Dooley shake hands thinking he’d won the game only to have to go back to the sideline and coach his team to an OT loss.

What are UGA’s season’s tickets numbers? Since Tenn has more seats I would expect them to allocate more than UGA. Either way, if ours aren’t filled should we start blaming the economy, and the drought, and the………?

Quote Of The Day

“Being a student at Georgia and playing ball, I’ve definitely grown, widened my horizons and experienced things I never thought I would. I feel like I’ve grown on and off the field, and the university prepared me for that. I’ve done some awesome things and met some awesome people. I’ll definitely be back to finish my schoolwork, because that was a big priority for me and my family and weighed heavily on my decision. I know football won’t last forever. It’ll be great to come back and get that degree, so I can tell my kids about it one day.” — Roquan Smith, AJ-C, 3/7/18
